Ruth Ann Dahl was in born to parents Ray and Margaret Dahl in Beemer, Nebraska on November 14, 1936 where Ray was stationed as a member of the U.S. Military.

Upon his release from Military Service, the family moved to Boulder, Colorado where her dad built their home on Baseline Road. Ruth and her sisters (Janet & Patricia) attended local Boulder schools, and Ruth graduated from Boulder High School in 1954. She then went on to receive her nursing degree from St. Luke’s / Denver University Nursing school in 1957.

It was during her time pursuing her nursing degree that she met her future husband Ron Neely on a blind date set up by his twin brother Don. After two years of dating, Ron and Ruth were married on June 8, 1957 - a special date in her family as her parents, grandparents, an aunt and uncle and her younger sister were all married on June 8th.

Ruth began her nursing career at Weld County Hospital in Greeley while Ron worked on his degree at the University of Northern Colorado in 1959. Ruth continued her nursing career at the Burlington Hospital after Ron started his career in education at Stratton High School. After 3 years, they left Stratton and moved to the Brighton area. She continued her nursing career at Brighton Community Hospital where she worked on the oor and later as Head Nurse in the recovery room prior to retiring in 1993.

Ruth was very talented in so many ways from oil painting, ceramics, and her love of sewing and knitting. She made both daughter’s wedding dresses and made graduation and wedding quilts for all of her grandchildren. Family gatherings were always very important and top on her list, and she even looked forward to camping in the mountains during the summer.

For Ruth, it was family rst above anything else. She enjoyed attending every athletic event for her children and grandchildren from kindergarten through to college, never missing a game! She even kept her own scorebook for every game she attended. She enjoyed her grandkids and looked forward to seeing them and hearing of their adventures. Her favorite time of year was Christmas which was evident with all the contests she won in the neighborhood for Best Exterior decorations. She also collected many Santa Claus gurines (over 100) and tree decorations; the house was always full of holiday cheer.

Ruth is survived by her husband George Ronald Neely, her son Jerry (Deb) Neely, daughter Sherry (Tim) Barnard, son Greg (Sandy) Neely and daughter Pam Smith along with 7 grandchildren, Alexandra (Omar), Curtis (Ashley), Caitlyn, Kylie (Trent), Courtney, Mick, Stephanie (Zach) and 2 Great Grandchildren, Audra and Nakoa and her sister Pat Lambert and many nieces and nephews.
